Bush/Kennedy bill goes South…

It was a good day to die for the Bush/Kennedy “amnesty” bill. Sorry, but I can’t help visualizing this bill in the midst of Dante’s Inferno. The mental image brings a smile to my face. My sleep will be sweet tonight.
“I think the only victory here is for the American people and, symbolically, a government of the people and for the people. The people responded to this issue in a very emotional and just a very engaged way, which changed the minds of many people here in the Senate,” said U.S. Senator Jim DeMint.
You said it Jim. The elitist politicians who supported this bill had more to worry about than how they were going to cash in on promises made by the Bush White House in exchange for selling out the American people. Some of our elected officials’ jobs were on the line and I think they knew it.
I’m just blown away by what it took to get these bureaucrats’ attention. The public outcry was substantial before they voted to put this thing back in play earlier in the week. Yet, they went forward, apparently unhindered in their zeal to ram this thing down our throats.
This was a win for legal immigrants, a win for the American people, and a win for democracy. Pick out your tombstone below:
